Research direction

Start at modules/core/shared/src/main/scala/net/protocol/Startup.scala:52 and reproduce the error with Skunk 0.6.3, CE3 3.3.12, and PostgreSQL 15.4. Trace the UnknownMessage(Y, ByteVector(...)) response to determine which backend message is unhandled. Done means the cause is identified and the protocol behavior is covered appropriately.
